Please scroll down to read the ten finalists in our Pitch + 250 contests. All of these finalists are currently being read by our panel of five agents, and we'll be announcing the winners soon.

Jan and I want to congratulate everyone who made this round, but also everyone who entered the contest, or any contest. Putting our work out there is hard. And sometimes, when you think you can't take another rejection, another blank page you can't see past, another time when someone didn't appreciate your work, the big break-through you've been waiting for is just around the corner.

WRITING CONTEST

To keep subscribers from getting inundated by posts, we've moved our agent-judged writing contests off to Adventures in YA Contests, a separate site just for AdventuresInYAPubilshing.com contests. Stay tuned for a new contest starting soon!

AdventuresInYAPublishing.com sometimes receives books for free from publishers or authors in the hope that we will mention them on the blog, but otherwise we receive no compensation for writing posts or content on this site. We have no material connections to the brands, products, or services mentioned, except those by individual site members in their capacity as authors. Our posts often include convenient links, and a small commission may be paid on some of these if you purchase the item after clicking. We use the income from this and from sidebar advertising to help defray the costs of postage for mailing books to giveaway winners. Inclusion of a book on the site does not imply an endorsement unless the individual who authored the post specifically states that they have personally read the book or believes the product or service mentioned will add value to our readers.
